He was fired over something he posted on Facebook.
Jason Brown worked with the Colleton County Fire-Rescue for the last three years. He was fired in mid-February after posting a controversial video on his personal Facebook page. Brown said some think the video is racist. He said it was just meant to be funny.
“Am I angry? Yeah, I’m angry,” he told News 2. “I’m out of a job for two weeks, now. I got a have a son who’s six and a wife who’s a stay at home mom, and now I’ve got two weeks without a paycheck.”
A memorandum from the Director of Colleton County Fire-Rescue said Brown “displayed poor judgment” and “created an embarrassing situation for this department”.
Brown said he has no plans to take down the video, because he doesn’t think he was wrong for posting it.
